Datsun – other models: the collective page of 520, 620 and 720 series pick-ups and the Bestel and Urvan van versions, four- and six-cylinder engines 46 to 71.1 kW, 1,189 to 3,300 cc
Datsun was, from the 1930s to the 1980s, the export name of the Japanese carmaker Nissan, and between 2013 and 2022 the brand was revived for emerging markets. This collective page gathers models the register could not assign to a named range, chiefly pick-ups of the 520, 620 and 720 series and van versions; "bestel" is the Dutch word for a delivery van and points to the Benelux market, "Urvan" denotes Nissan/Datsun's light-van range, and "Patr." is short for the Patrol off-roader.

The register lists 40 versions with four- to six-cylinder engines from 1,189 to 3,300 cc, outputs from 46 to 71.1 kW, kerb weights from 699 to 1,890 kg, gross vehicle weights from 1,080 to 2,930 kg, lengths from 4,110 to 4,785 mm and widths from 1,480 to 1,760 mm.
Datsun's pick-ups of the 520 to 720 series contributed substantially to Japanese makers' success in the North American and European pick-up market and competed there with the Toyota Hilux and Ford Courier for price-conscious trade and private buyers.
When buying a used example, check for rust in the frame, load bed and wheel arches, the condition of the carburettor or early injection system, and wear on the clutch and brakes on heavily used commercial vehicles; spare parts for the common pick-up models remain comparatively easy to source through the Nissan parts trade and independent suppliers, while the rarer van versions are more involved.
